It will be three months tomorrow since Maddy passed away, but it feels like an eternity. I wish I could say that it was getting easier, but I would not be telling the truth. While we are able to make it through each day, I still fall asleep every night thinking of Maddy and wondering how this happened and it is the first thought in my head when I wake up each morning. Today, I went through our office trying to sort through some piles that had been building. Our office had been Maddy's classroom for the last three years- it broke my heart to go through her basket of school stuff. I had to just leave her desk for another day. I don't know if I will ever be ready to go through her bedroom.
On a brighter note, we have been told that there are now 6 potential bone marrow matches from the Bone Marrow Drive. This gives us a little comfort knowing that others may be saved.
Finally, the ABC 4 Maddy Relay for Life team is selling memorial t-shirts until April 15th. If interested, you can turn in your orders to Archbold Elementary School or let us know and we will get the order placed for you.
